School Festival – Open Classroom Day

Friday, 26 May 2023

Grateful and happy we look back on the school festival. It was a very nice festival with great weather and many guests. Sometimes it felt like a mixture of family party, class reunion and birthday. There were two bouncy castles, balloons, barbecues and much more. You sat together with your family at a decorated banquet bench, ate a veggie burger and watched the choir performance. You met your former school friends, shared exciting news and solved an Escape Room. Interested parents came by, got a taste of UNICA and met the staff.
The students proudly displayed their offerings and the graduating class earned their final trip with coffee, cake, frozen yoghurt and pancakes.
Most of the visitors would have liked to stay longer, but unfortunately everything had to be dismantled at 8 pm and the bouncy castles were deflated. This went super fast thanks to the energetic help of parents and friends.
We would like to thank Mineralquellen Eptingen AG for sponsoring sunshades, refrigerators and drinks.
A big thank you to everyone who helped out, baked something or took a shift at a stall and to everyone who came by!

Mother’s Day

Sunday, 14 May 2023

In the kindergarten, they have been busy making Mother’s Day gifts.

They painted collected cans, filled them with soil and sowed cress seeds. The children were excited to see how the cresses grew.
The children made a flower out of muffin cups and stuck it into the “cress garden”. In addition, there was a lovingly designed book for the mummy.

We wish all mums a happy Mother’s Day.

A special trip to Paris

Friday 5 May – Monday 8 May 2023

The French Plus students spend exciting days in the capital of France.
This was made possible by the French teacher. She organised and planned the trip. On site, they meet a former pupil of UNICA who is now studying in Paris and visit the attractions.

The “Camouflage” Hand

April 2023

These works of art are well worth seeing. 🙂
These works were produced in two steps. First, design the patterns and put them on the sheet with watercolour. In the process, the pupils did not yet know what they would need it for.
A week later, the second step was to put my hand on it and paint it deceptively real. It turned out great!

Solar ship

April 2023

The NMG topic “Electricity” is finished and as a grand finale the pupils were allowed to build a solar ship.
Primeo offers workshops for schools.
The pupils were allowed to assemble their personal and individual ships, choose the colours, add details and of course the technical facts were explained to them.

Traffic instruction in the kindergarten

April 2023

The children have been looking forward to this day with the officer for a long time! Finally, the officer arrived. He was accompanied by the little zebra. The zebra showed the children how to cross the road properly. First, they were shown how to walk safely on the pavement and how to cross the road with “wait, look, listen, walk and look again” and practised with them.
Afterwards, what was learned was practised outside on the zebra crossing.

Number conception in the kindergarten

April 2023

Counting, sorting, putting together, trying out and finding shapes.

In between, the children are allowed to do a few posts about it. It is amazing what certain children already know and can do!

Easter celebration

Thursday, 30 March 2023

This year we organised a celebration with the kindergarten, primary and secondary classes in the Aula. The pupils of the 5th-9th grade prepared questions. For example, the following questions came up: “What does the rooster have to do with Good Friday and Easter?” or “What speaks for the resurrection of Jesus?” The questions were then answered interactively. The younger children had great fun when they answered a question correctly. The event was framed by songs and an input on the theme “Jesus, the Lamb of God”.

Of course, a snack is also part of the day. One mother baked many delicious braids/Zopf for the whole school. Together with a chocolate bar, syrup and apples, this made a delicious snack.

The 1st-4th graders played a game of hide-and-seek in the school building in the afternoon and then everyone said goodbye to the Easter holidays.

We wish you a good and traffic jam-free Easter break!

Creativity in kindergarten

Wednesday, 29 March 2023

If you have your children in kindergarten, you have received a lot of handicrafts shortly before the Easter holidays to decorate your home.
Simply incredible what the children create.
Such beautiful and lovingly crafted unique pieces!

Field trip day in March

Tuesday, 14 March 2023

Being on the road, developing class bonding, discovering new things and having fun. The classes experience all this and much more on the field trip days. The classes plan their trips together. Often the school excursions are related to the NMG topic, as is the case with the Flex class, for example. They are currently studying the topic “Stone Age” and therefore visited the BL Museum. There they tried to make fire with the materials provided.
The 8th grade hiked to Füllinsdorf and had a blast at the Swiss Mega Park. And the best thing about it was that they had the whole hall to themselves!
Class 7 stayed overnight at the school, cooked together and had breakfast in the morning.
The 8th/9th grade visited the memorial in Riehen. “The memorial is dedicated to those Jewish refugees who were lucky enough to find admission in Switzerland. However, it is also a special reminder of all Jewish refugees who were refused entry by Switzerland.” (Quote from http://www.gedenkstaetteriehen.ch/)
The 3rd/4th class just made it to the forest and back before the rain. There they collected branches to make wreaths.

Mice – Parade

Tuesday, 21 March 2023

The children in classes 1 and 2 drew mice according to instructions. Each drawing has become unique. The short film shows these individual pictures.

A big thank you to our sponsors

Saturday, 18 March 2023

We thanked our generous sponsors with a brunch. The UNICA school is largely financed by donations. That is why we are very grateful for these valuable people who support our work! UNICA School promotes innovative methods and approaches in education to provide the best learning environment for students. With your donation you help to continue these efforts.
The pupils of the 3rd/4th class created the decorations for it together with Mrs Herrmann. The morning was rounded off with a review of the year and examples from everyday school life (anonymously, of course).

A very big THANK YOU to all who support us! Be it financially, in prayer, materially or with your help!

Experienced with God

Friday, 03 March 2023

Again and again people visit us and tell us what they experience with God.
In the last few weeks, for example, 9 men and women from South Korea came to us and told us what the Christian school and South Korea are like. The children were allowed to ask questions and they even sang a blessing song for us.
Romy Tschopp’s visit was also very exciting. On her website it says: “The first Swiss parasnowboarder with an “open back” (spina bifida) has ventured into a professional career and encourages people to realise their dreams, address social taboos and set goals for themselves.” She impressed the children very much with her cheerful and motivating personality.

Winter Project Day

Thursday, 16 February 2023

The pupils could choose from “winter” project options and be active. There was a ski day on the Melchsee-Frutt, ice skating in Basel or curling. The temperatures were so mild that there was a hike on the bee trail or you could cook on the fire in the forest. In addition, there was a sports programme in the hall.
